Photography tips
How this image was taken
A focal length of 18 mm was used to capture the portal extensively. The aperture of f/10 provides high depth of field, while the shutter speed of 1/800 s and ISO of 500 effectively capture the subdued light without blur.
- Use the leading lines of the escalator to guide the viewer's gaze towards the sculpture.
- Choose a low camera perspective to make the railway station portal appear more architecturally imposing.
- Experiment with a smaller aperture if you want both the foreground and the distant subject to appear in focus.
